Describing it as a "conspiracy", the AIMPLB also accused the government of snatching the
right of divorce from men.

very important, then it should rst speak to the Muslim Personal Law Board and Muslim
women organisations," the spokesperson said.

divorce from men. This is a big conspiracy. The draft of the bill also states that triple talaq
